What We’re Doing

Welcome to our NCAA Totals betting article.  As your author, I want you to get to know me and the process I have been building.  As a degenerate gambler and an avid Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) lover, I have been working on a process to live by for NCAA Basketball totals.  I have been playing DFS for nearly a decade now, mostly for the NFL, but I will dabble in other sports as well.  Make sure to follow me on X (@trevors_FF) for my DFS takes, but today is all about the best plays in college basketball.  

The Model

Once Football season ended last year, I found myself yearning for a good product and tool to bet on something.  As I began searching and dialing in different formulas, I found one that I have settled into and has worked quite well.  Last season, between February through the end of March Madness, the model hit at a 60% clip.  Since starting it back up again this season, around mid-January, it has been hitting at a 56% clip.  I am confident enough in this model that I am ready to pass along the plays for free to our readers at Bite-Size Sports!

It’s been a few days since we have been together. Even on days I do not have an article make sure you follow me on X to see my plays.  I put up Saturday Night plays as well as plays for Sunday and Monday.  Here’s how all of my plays went from Saturday through Monday.

Year to Date

I am going to track our picks year to date from the date we started sharing an article (Feb 19th) which included Feb 18th plays as well. 

POTD – 9-3 75%

All Plays – 63 – 42 60%

February 27th Plays

Each day, I will provide a Play of the Day.  This is the strongest play I find on the slate and one I am transparently laying 2 units on. Otherwise, I am laying 1U on the rest of the plays I provide here.  

While I wanted Saturday to be much better we did end up with 3-4 games that were very close and went against us.  The model is still dialed in especially with our plays of the day!  The smaller slates have treated us a little better and we get a smaller slate on Tuesday.  Let’s win some money.  

Play of the day – Miami (OH) vs Bowling Green Under 146.5

In honor of a good friend of mine who spent a year working for the BGSU basketball team, I present to you a Falcons play.  The Falcons vs the RedHawks as the Falcons of Bowling Green play for a MAC tournament spot.  Which don’t get me into this but why doesn’t the MAC allow all teams into their conference tournament?  One of the most absurd facts I have heard about College Basketball in a while.  Only 8 of their 12 teams make it, like you couldn’t have added one more day of games for your tournament?  I digress. Two teams battling to secure their spot in the 8, two teams that hadn’t sniffed 140 in a while before their games on Saturday and two teams who are averaging less than 70 ppg over their last 5.  I agree with the model here: let’s smash 2 units on the under.  

Here are the remaining plays for Tuesday:

Cincy vs Houston – Over 131.5

UMass vs George Washington – Under 158.5

Ball St vs Central Michigan – Under 135.5

Buffalo vs Kent St – Under 146.5

BYU vs KU – Under 153.5 

UL Monroe vs Texas St – Over 134.5

Penn St vs Iowa – Under 161.5

Boise St vs Air Force – Over 134.5

Utah St vs Fresno St – Under 144.5

Nevada vs Colorado St – Under 138.5

SJSU vs SDSU – Under 139.5  

Tail at your own risk, and thank you for supporting Bite-Size Sports.  I hope I can do the research and provide the model plays to help you win some money!  Welcome to the ride as we get into the pinnacle of college basketball season.
